| Obverse description | The obverse is designed in the form of an open hardcover book viewed from the outside, with the spine rendered in high relief at the center dividing two panels. Each panel is framed by elaborate gilt acanthus-leaf scrollwork at the corners, accented by circular rosette bosses at regular intervals along the borders, evoking the decorative binding of a medieval illuminated manuscript. The left panel displays a finely detailed sprig of botanical flora in relief against a mirror-polished field, with the fineness mark 'Ag 999' inscribed in the upper left and the date '2018' in the lower portion. The right panel bears the issuing authority legend 'REPUBLIQUE DU CAMEROUN' and the denomination '1000 FRANCS CFA' in Gothic-style lettering against a proof field. The mint mark 'mw' of the Mint of Poland appears discretely on the obverse. |
